Amazing day! Highlight of the Gold Coast

We had an amazing time doing the surf lesson, this was our first time doing it and we had great fun. Our instructor Jason was great, encouraging and helpful. We picked this up pretty quickly and managed to catch some of our own waves!

Operator response

Jason will be so happy with your kind words- Thanks for surfing with us!

Very good surfles

I took a surfing lesson with a group in November when the weather conditions for surfing were not too good. Strong currents and a wild sea. Despite this, the entire group received good guidance and explanations and I felt safe in the water. They gave tips and I learned a lot. I enjoyed it so much I took another lesson the next day! That says enough right :)

Operator response

Thanks for the review. We're glad our instructors were able assist despite the conditions. Unfortunately we can't control the weather and it was change very unexpectedly however we're glad you came back for a second time round!

A great experience!

I have never surfed before and had a lot of fun! Our guide was super funny and very good in motivating us in trying again and again. The group size was good since we were not many people and the beach we went to was a great starting point for a first time surf. I would totally recommend for trying to surf the first time!!

Operator response

Thanks for the great review Vanessa! We appreciate the awesome feedback and kind words :)

Highly recommended family experience!

My pre-teen daughter and I went on family 2 hour lesson. We are Gold Coast locals and had the most fabulous experience together, it will be a lifelong memory for us. Our instructor was Beau, he was amazing! Beau was so positive, knowledgeable and patient; his patience definitely appreciated by a pair of novices. We'll be back for more, can't wait!!!!

Operator response

Thank you so much for the amazing review! Beau will be absolutely stoked with the feedback- Hopefully we'll be able to surf with you both again soon! :)

Best surfing experience ever!

Had a great lesson with experienced coach Jason! The best surf method I have ever learnt, slow down, not to rush, how to keep balance, how to catch the wave. Also they made you great surf video/photos, really enjoy it!!

Operator response

Thank you so much for the great feedback on your lesson with Jason, He is awesome and he personally trains all our our team of great coaches. His relaxed attitude really helps you take it all in and the method we use is slightly different to most schools. The more time you take getting it right before you get in the water the easier it is and the more fun it is when you get out on the waves. The photos are great to look back on n a few years then you are a pro and you can see where it all began :-) Keep surfing! Kerri
